</div>I feel that the guiding principle is that information should be kept<br>
together in one place until the volume makes it necessary to split it.<br>
Start with one forum, we can always split it later when the traffic<br>
builds up. If the traffic is light, then it does no harm if users and<br>
devs are all fully aware of what is going on, in fact it's ideal.<br>
<br>
I'm assuming that the present "Multimedia & Video" and "Multimedia<br>
Production" forums will stay, as they field a lot of hardware<br>
questions which would totally swamp the Studio forum if they were<br>
combined with it.<br>

<br></blockquote><div><br>I agree with your take on not splitting the forum (I think this would be a bigger bureaucratic headache too), however from my understanding of Scott's original proposal, "Multimedia & Video" is not a part of this discussion and "Multimedia Production" is proposed to be changed to "Ubuntu Studio". The two names are very similar and I've seen many posts in the wrong categories because of this fact (another great argument to change the name of Multimedia Production).<br>
